SFH To Duplex Conversion

Ryan Garza
  • Westland, MI
Posted

Hello Community! I just bought a single family home in the Westland MI area.  The basement of this home is about the same size as the first floor.  The basement has a bathroom with shower plumbing and an area that could easily be converted into a kitchen.  The home is in the Livonia school district and therefore may be very desirable. 

I want to live in this home while remodeling the basement and then immediately move in a tenant.  What steps should I take in order to ensure that this conversion can be done legally and effectively?
